Another slight change of plan . Not adding any more to my list . Just changed a location for growing the Lima/ butter beans. In stead of growing them at one of the holiday cottages I clean (not convinced I’ll still be doing it by time they are ready for harvest). I’ve planted them in my new garden with the runner beans. I won’t be able to save seeds from either of them, like I’d planned. But I will still get to harvest & eat things from my own garden. I’m going to be so excited to pick that first bean
.
Thanks Veggie (I think?) for the Hunter bean seed in the seed swap. It's my new favourite bean - really tender and sweet. I find normal French beans a bit boring without some sort of dressing, but the Hunter I enjoy just on their own.
I like Hunter too - shame I didn't grow them this year. Maybe I'd have had better luck.

Veggie introduced me to Hunter beans too, always on my grow list now.
Will you two stop rubbing it in.
Got these to enjoy tonight, thanks Veggie.
You're so unkind TMTT.
Just for you Veggie

And I've got a fridge full and have to pick again today. Almost a week away from the garden for various reasons has overwhelmed me.
I'm ignoring you and your beans.
With 3kg of french beans in the freezer and quite a few in the fridge, I think I'll leave the rest to mature now for next years seeds. Any extras can be added to lots of dinners. with other varieties I grow just for drying.
